Unfortunately it's part of `avocado.core.runner` so you can't influence this from test. The fastest way would be to send a PR to master. Slightly slower could be to raise an issue on github, but it might take a while before someone picks this up. When it's on master, provided it's classified as BUG, we can backport it to 52.x and release it.

Anyway CCing Cleber and Caio as they might have a different opinion. As for me I'd be fine declaring it a BUG, because this looks like the cause of some of my failed-interrupted tests (I just haven't had time to look at it in depth as there were other more important things to do...).
